I guess it would be harder to tell if the leather ones were fake by a picture online, you would have to see in person. I don;t see why they would bother, it seems so expensive to counterfeit a leather coach bag, they are not like in the thousands of dollars. I can see the older ones being counterfeited though, before the sig came out. Sorry for the wrong info !

No, only yellow ones, and there are some fakes of those on Ebay too. The fakers always get the colors wrong.
Coach usually stays with natural colors when doing keychains of plants, animals, that kind of thing. They don't do blue strawberries, multicolor dogs, pink suns, multicolor ladybugs, or any color breast cancer ribbon other than pink. Any time you see a design in an "unnatural" color it's almost always fake.
That is the tote from the Coach Cotton Legacy line last year. I saw quite a few in my local Coach store where the C's didn't line up right. I remember walking by the front window of the store and did a double take because they had a tote in the front window that definitely didn't have the Cs lined up right.
When I bought my tote and my hobo from the Cotton Legacy Line I made sure that the C's were lined up right. Coach has gotten a little sloppy with their alignment.
That purse might be real, but I wouldn't buy it.
OMG!...I cant even begin to describe the pain in my head...these have got to be the WORST bags I've seen...Fake doesnt even come close!
Figures, they are actually really cute, but after I posted I looked at them again, the hang tag gave it away, didn't look at it the first time.
Thanks.
I've really enjoyed reading all the posts this past week. I have learned so much from you guys! I love the coach products, I swear the sales associates at Macy's are going to think I'm a stalker! I never knew so many items could be faked, it's sad. I was burned on ebay once, and now I'm waiting for a different purse and I really hope it's the real deal this time. I think based on everything you guys have talked about, it's not a good idea to buy a wallet on ebay. There are a couple i am interested it, but don't know enough yet to determine what is real and what isn't. How often does Coach come out with new products? How often do new colors come out? Like I said, I'm still learning!! Thank you for helping me with all this.

Crista, Coach tries to have something new every month or two. Keep your eyes peeled, they love surprising everyone with cool new stuff!
